  1. The Fighting Gym

    You could always try a Gallade...He's Psychic neutral with the best Special Defense the Fighting mono can offer you.
  2. The Ground Gym

    Props for no Wildcards. Wildcards are boring. Why Mono at all if you have like only 3-4 Pokemon of your gyms actual type. Obviously in a Mono there ARE going to be unavoidable weakness issues but you really shouldn't have THREE pokemon on your team who are 4x to Ice. I would drop one of them...
  3. Them Kids Not in OU! (A OU, UU RMT)

    I got slightly different numbers but yes, with Rocks it is a KO. I use a Shaymin that is not EV'd all too heavily in Speed so the common 252 Speed Lucario goes before me, but yes. If a Shaymin EVs its speed then Lucario goes after it and is not KO'd. And sometimes worse, but it is a point...
  4. Them Kids Not in OU! (A OU, UU RMT)

    Assuming Max/Max...many and dare I venture most Celebi pour EVs into Speed and Special Attack for CM sets and even Defensive Celebi may invest in Special Defense also. Lucario's Crunch will very often find itself OHKOing a Celebi. And even Max/Max Defensive will only hang on with 5%. HP Fire...
  5. Them Kids Not in OU! (A OU, UU RMT)

    *Pursuits* Shaymin is weak to Fire, Ice and Bug. Additionally Flying and Poison which are very rarely used because they kind of suck. In OU Skarmory with brave Bird is about the only Flying move you'll ever see. And I have no idea about Poison, I think I saw a Gengar with Sludge Bomb like once...
  6. Ask a simple question, get a simple answer - mark 22 (READ THE OP)

    Not really as those abilities are "When at low health" so if the Pokemon was to recover their health they would no longer be in effect so as they pass to the full health reciever they would not get it, it would only imply to boosts that are conditional but permanent once they have been activated...

    I feel it's been long enough to give my question a bump it's been like 80 posts and 24 hours since I asked and nobody gave an answer.
  8. UU Pokemon Padawan seeking help.

    Nidoking is a beast, Nidoqueens job is Toxic Spikes. And the dishes. Seriously though her Added Bulk IS pretty useful you just need to consider whether it is actually all that useful and whether the job she is currently doing isn't done better by Nidoking when you choose her. If the answer is...
  9. |Swords of the Ring| [UU Joint]

    By all means discuss it. You shoud discuss EVERYTHING I was just pointing out that his Attacking stats were equal, not trying to make a point or anything. However I will say that with no EV investment BOTH his attacking stats are low and at least he has a good option to boost his Physical...
  10. |Swords of the Ring| [UU Joint]

    I know I'm awesome right? Expert belt is good on Dugtrio just due to the nature of Dugtrios use in coming in on things he Counters in the first place. The extra 10% damage boost also goes a long way towards that all important Choice Band Bluff. Statistics HP 75 Atk 70...
  11. |Swords of the Ring| [UU Joint]

    Toxic was hugely useful when I used it too. But you can always keep the Toxic and Roost in there and just swap Dragon Dance and Dragon Claw for Dragon Pulse and Flamethrower, it's not your use of Toxic he disagrees with.. It's your use of Special moves when Altaria has an equally good physical...
  12. Ask a simple question, get a simple answer - mark 22 (READ THE OP)

    Not to mention the Poison type gets access to a TON of Explosions and not just Explosions big packing a punch Explosions of decent Attack stats or Pokemon that are hard to take down, Muk, Skuntank, Weezing etc. If you ever find a team you're up against has this one Pokemon that totally handles...
  13. |Swords of the Ring| [UU Joint]

    So I played a couple games with the team just to see how it was and I didn't really get a chance to give it a full go because 9 times out of 10 people just quit. Something I noticed though was simply... Spiritomb is a dick, Machoke can do nothing to him except hope to get 3 Rock Slide flinches...
  14. |Swords of the Ring| [UU Joint]

    2 questions. 1. Is it Hidden Power Water or Grass? 2. What IV's are needed to get that Hidden Power+Nature combo legally on Raikou?
  15. New and 'creative' moveset/EV spread thread - UU Edition

    Logical Paradox! I know what you mean though, and you're correct.
